But I have another reason for choosing September as front- Vicar runner in the favourite months stakes. Throughout most of my school life, as the long summer holiday drew to a close, I felt an excitement and expectation Writes... rising in me. Nice new school uniform, shiny new shoes, new class or new school but most importantly a chance to start again. Every September I vowed to try harder, do better, wipe the slate clean and make this the year I shone as brightly as my new shoes. Unfortunately, by October, or possibly November if I was having a good year, all those resolutions would have worn thin... until the next year and the next September optimism. Although school is long behind me now (as it is even for my children!) I still can’t shake that ‘September’ feeling. And it reminds me that, perhaps unlike some of the teachers that knew me, God is always right there with me in any new start I make (at any time of the year). He supports all my good intentions with no harping back or recriminations for old misdemeanours. His patience is endless, his love unconditional. There is a lovely hymn which begins ‘There’s a wideness in God’s mercy’, and which continues in a later verse, ‘But we make his love too narrow by false limits of our own and we magnify his strictness with a zeal he will not own.’ Those words really ring true. We tend to assume that God will judge us in much the same we that we so readily judge others and ourselves. Yet the astonishing message at the heart of the gospel is that God is altogether different from us; his attitudes, goodness and forgiveness are on a level we find hard to comprehend. With God we should never labour under the burden of guilt, we should never imagine we have committed some unforgivable sin or been lacking in some way. We may be hard on ourselves, feeling we have failed once again, but the Season of nature of God is always to have mercy. Mists… So enjoy the ‘September feeling’. Look to a new beginning - resolve to do better. God will be with us all the way even if and New we fail. He will lift us up and help us start again – his love is unconditional, his patience has no limits.

I shall be cycling around as many churches in the local area as I can manage in a day and the sponsorship money I raise will be split 50/50 between the DHCT and our own churches. Our 3 churches are all graded List 1 and take a lot of work and money to keep them in good repair; if you would like to help towards this task then please contact me, I would really appreciate your sponsorship and you can find forms for this purpose in the churches.

The District Council is required by Section 71 of the Town and Country Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 to formulate and publish proposals for the preservation and enhancement of Conservation Areas. This can be achieved through Conservation Area Appraisals. West Dorset has 79 Conservation Areas and the council has agreed on a programme of character appraisals. Loders and Uploders and Powerstock and Nettlecombe Conservation Areas form part of this appraisal work, grouped together because of their geographical proximity. The two Conservation Areas were designated as follows: • Loders and Uploders, April 1975, revised February 1990 and December 2007 • Powerstock and Nettlecombe, January 1975 In order that designation is effective in conserving the special interest, planning decisions must be based on a thorough understanding of the Conservation Areas’ character.

  • The Team Rector Writes
    The Team Rector Writes... Dear Friends, When Bishop Nicholas visited the deaneries of the Diocese during Lent 2015 to develop our conversation around the vision RENEWING HOPE – PRAY, SERVE, GROW, he challenged us with three questions: What do you pray for? Whom do we serve? How will you grow? Questions that might at a first glance seem easy to answer: I want to encourage you to take time this Advent to look at those questions and allow yourselves to be more challenged than you expect! Advent and Christmas are seasons for the renewing of hope and I wonder whether we might try sharing our stories of hope with each other, as we seek to tell the greatest story of hope? At the start of diocesan meetings we now spend time sharing our stories of hope, talking about the things that have given us hope recently. First a candle is lit as the centre of the meeting – symbol of Christ’s presence in our midst; the Bible is read and studied; then people tell one another their stories. Simple but profound and challenging too! It is easy to be busy and preoccupied by the needs and demands of the day, especially in preparation for Christmas! But how life giving and holy it is to seek out and name those moments when hope has erupted. For some Christmas is unbounded joy and excitement, for others it is painful and troubling. However, it is the moment when we reflect on the truth that God became a human being; forever to experience our joys and sorrows alongside us.

LODERS by Wilfred H. Brown, Bradpole, Bridport. LODERS, a very pretty place, How peaceful it all seems. Surrounded by the wooded Hills, With little lanes and many streams. This lovely Village away from the Town, Where many old-fashioned Houses are seen, Seems to add homeliness to those living there, And a life so simple and clean. The everyday life of these Loders folk, Has always been friendly and kind, And though many places change with the years, It has !:nt changed here you will find. For the people here seem to follow along, And in many homes we would see, The work that was done by their parents, now gone, Of Bridport's great net industry. Yes, the nets that they braid in this Village here, Have gone to many great lands, And Loders can feel that the works that they do, Are done by very skilled hands. So if we visit this little place here, In this. Village how welcomed we feel How pleasant to walk through those lovely lanes, Or to sit upon Eoarsbarrow Hill.
